  • A 'Common-Sense Revolution'? the Transformation of the Melbourne City
    A ‘COMMON-SENSE REVOLUTION’? THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE MELBOURNE CITY COUNCIL, 1992−9 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April, 2015 Angela G. Munro Faculty of Business, Government and Law Institute for Governance and Policy Analysis University of Canberra ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis is the culmination of almost fifty years’ interest professionally and as a citizen in local government. Like many Australians, I suspect, I had barely noticed it until I lived in England where I realised what unique attributes it offered, despite the different constitutional arrangements of which it was part. The research question of how the disempowerment and de-democratisation of the Melbourne City Council from 1992−9 was possible was a question with which I had wrestled, in practice, as a citizen during those years. My academic interest was piqued by the Mayor of Stockholm to whom I spoke on November 18, 1993, the day on which the Melbourne City Council was sacked. ‘That couldn’t happen here’, he said. I have found the project a herculean labour, since I recognised the need to go back to 1842 to track the institutional genealogy of the City Council’s development in the pre- history period to 1992 rather than a forensic examination of the seven year study period. I have been exceptionally fortunate to have been supervised by John Halligan, Professor of Public Administration at University of Canberra. An international authority in the field, Professor Halligan has published extensively on Australian systems of government including the capital cities and the Melbourne City Council in particular.

  • 1. Gina Rinehart 2. Anthony Pratt & Family • 3. Harry Triguboff
    1. Gina Rinehart $14.02billion from Resources Chairman – Hancock Prospecting Residence: Perth Wealth last year: $20.01b Rank last year: 1 A plunging iron ore price has made a big dent in Gina Rinehart’s wealth. But so vast are her mining assets that Rinehart, chairman of Hancock Prospecting, maintains her position as Australia’s richest person in 2015. Work is continuing on her $10billion Roy Hill project in Western Australia, although it has been hit by doubts over its short-term viability given falling commodity prices and safety issues. Rinehart is pressing ahead and expects the first shipment late in 2015. Most of her wealth comes from huge royalty cheques from Rio Tinto, which mines vast swaths of tenements pegged by Rinehart’s late father, Lang Hancock, in the 1950s and 1960s. Rinehart's wealth has been subject to a long running family dispute with a court ruling in May that eldest daughter Bianca should become head of the $5b family trust. 2. Anthony Pratt & Family $10.76billion from manufacturing and investment Executive Chairman – Visy Residence: Melbourne Wealth last year: $7.6billion Rank last year: 2 Anthony Pratt’s bet on a recovering United States economy is paying off. The value of his US-based Pratt Industries has surged this year thanks to an improving manufacturing sector and a lower Australian dollar. Pratt is also executive chairman of box maker and recycling business Visy, based in Melbourne. Visy is Australia’s largest private company by revenue and the biggest Australian-owned employer in the US. Pratt inherited the Visy leadership from his late father Richard in 2009, though the firm’s ownership is shared with sisters Heloise Waislitz and Fiona Geminder.

  • Save Albert Park Inc Fact Sheet 2014
    Grand Prix Facts The REAL facts on the grand prix Save Albert Park Inc Fact Sheet 2014 The Australian Formula One grand prix car racing event has been staged annually in Albert Park since 1996. In that time, operating losses and circuit establishment and maintenance costs have cost Victorian taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. When other government subsidies and ‘lost opportunity’ costs are taken into account, the real cost to the Victorian economy reaches beyond one billion dollars. This shows how wrong Premier Jeff Kennett was in his promise, "Victorian taxpayers would not be asked to meet the cost of the event, with the State Government only prepared to act as guarantor for loans required to establish the race.” (Herald Sun 18/12/93). The set-up and take-down of the temporary circuit in Albert Park Reserve, and repair of damage to playing field takes around four months, and during this time the ambience of the park is destroyed by noise and dust, and movement of heavy trucks and machinery. 6,000 truck trips are made to transport 40,000 tonnes of race infrastructure is moved into and out of the park. Sports clubs are ejected from their grounds for up to two months. The Victorian Government and its agency the Australian Grand Prix Corporation (AGPC) are unable to produce any evidence that the financial losses and the environmental effects on Albert Park Reserve can be justified on any grounds. Premier Napthine repeats the mantra that the event has to provide ‘value for money for Victorian taxpayers’, but makes no case to identify where the value lies, or whether an alternative event might provide more value.
